Wow, looking at those 2 links above, there seems absolutely no resemblance atall between the 2 nose sections, even the light clusters are completely different. They look like 2 different cars.

Per DSC it would seem that at Spa the two ART/SMP Dallaras will run low df aero, and Dragonspeed high df

The top speeds seem to confirm this, SMP : 321 kph, Dragon : 308 kph.

Jenson might not necessarily like the gap to Toyota come LM, or if/when AER decides to blow up, but when his Dallara hits 350-360kph (?) on Mulsanne he might have a smile on his face for a while

IDK maybe they want the waiver-Bronzer to stay on track but seriously I don't think they really care about performance, this seems to be the ultimate slow-but-steady effort. And I guess it gives Dallara extra data (dunno what the Nederlands LMP2 is doing)

I think it was on S365 where it said that Dragonspeed had way more data/comfort level running in that config so wanted to keep it that way for the first race. They aren't running for the win after all.

Valid point. If they manage to finish the race on Saturday, they will score high.

Right, and they had more laps with it at the Prologue. Seems they are faster than the low d/f packaged teams too so far.

Not a great start to the season for the car. First shunt, first driver KO.

Accidents happen, and chassis/tubs can be repaired in lengthy gaps there are, but the mechanical gremlins for the ART car(s) are more worrying . Not that any chassis equipped with AER is gonna have smooth sailing prediction but you know

I donno if there's any correlation, but Petrov broke his arm in a test accident in the same car (type). Hopefully it's just a coincidence.

Third big shunt of Dallara-born BR in less than six months. Scary stuff!

BR01 have matched the highest speed in Spa.
I recall that the Dallara P217 has also matched the highest speed in Le Mans last year. It seems to be a trademark of Dallara
Joke a side, they might go to far in one direction and does look enought on the grip of the car

It's evolution of the P2 Dallara, obviously the features of it were always gonna carry out to the P1.

I don't quite understand what happened at Spa, both #17 and #11 had trouble with CLM, but later on #17 was also able to complete with the Orecas on pace (even dismissing the effect of safety cars). #11 seemed to have other problems as well...

I think it probably has more to do with the two younger drivers in #17 pushing more. possibly too much. Sarrazin did not set the best times in car #17 and was more inline with the #11 drivers. The car was using the LD aero kit, and to an extent the two younger drivers were pretty much match on pace in each sector to the Rebellions.

I think we could be in for a great Le mans battle between them. With Toyota cooking gear box oil after 6 hours of spa there may well be surprises!

Dallara said it wasn't. They said it's a brand new design that has nothing to do with the P2 chassis. That's not saying they didn't take anything learned from the P2 chassis but it's not an evolution of it according to them. Seems to have the same type of philosophy of low drag though. This makes me wonder if what Caddy has done to the lmp2 car would be good for wec type tracks.

Caddy has done to the P2 car? I wouldn't take anything in BoP formula like DPi for granted.

Anyway this is bit worrying

With two destroyed cars, Dallara could be faced with a significant parts shortage leading up to the 24 Hours of Le Mans, with no spare BR1 tubs understood to be currently available.

Plus Dragonspeed's team boss casting serious doubt on racing the car again before they find out what caused the crash. So that might be them out for Le Mans as well even if a spare tub becomes available.

Nothing worse than having a big shunt and not knowing what caused it. Who knows if they will be at Le Mans?

Elton Julian really does not mince his words.

I can't believe how much of a mess privateer LMP1 is right now less than a month away from test day.

Has anything about the Isaakyan crash been clarified, especially whether or not it was airborne beforehand? People at the circuits say it was but have yet to se any proof of this. Hope it wasn't...

I think they have done some work on the suspension side of things and the aero has changed from the p2 dallara. So why not take a look? It's clear that they are the car to beat in dpi and the negative bop on them is higher than the rest.
